Biological Science: Exploring the Science of Life responds to the
key needs of lecturers and their students by placing a clear
central narrative, carefully-structured active learning, and
confidence with quantitative concepts and scientific enquiry
central to its approach. Written by a team of dedicated and
passionate academics, and shaped by feedback from over 55
institutions, its straightforward narrative, reinforced by key
concept overview videos for every chapter, communicate key ideas
clearly: the right information is provided at the right time, and
at the right depth. Its pause and think features, self-check
quizzes, and graded end of chapter questions, augmented by
flashcards of key terms, directly support active learning. The
combination of narrative text and learning features promote a rich,
active learning experience: read, watch, and do. Its combination of
Quantitative Toolkits, Scientific Process panels, and the Life and
its Exploration chapters provide more insight and support than any
other general biology text; they prepare students to engage with
this quantitative and experimental discipline with confidence, and
set them on a path for success throughout their future studies.
With coverage that spans the full scale of biological science -
from molecule to ecosystem - and with an approach that fully
supports flexible, self-paced learning, Biological Science:
Exploring the Science of Life will set you on a path towards a
deeper understanding of the key concepts in biology, and a greater
appreciation of biology as a dynamic experimental science. Digital
formats and resources Biological Science: Exploring the Science of
Life is available for students and institutions to purchase in a
variety of formats. The enhanced ebook is enriched with features
that offer extra learning support: www.oxfordtextbooks.co.uk/ebooks
- Key concepts videos support students from the start of every
chapter and as they make their way through every Module. -
Self-check questions at the end of each chapter section give
students quick and formative feedback, building their confidence
and comprehension as they study and revise. - Quantitative skills
video screencasts help students to master the foundational skills
required by this discipline. - Interactive figures give students
the control they need to step through, and gain mastery over, key
concepts. - Per-chapter flashcard glossaries help students to
recall the key terms and concepts on which further study can be
built.

Now in its sixth edition, Biochemistry and Molecular Biology
provides the perfect balance between detail and conceptual
understanding. Maintaining the much-praised clarity of previous
editions, this edition incorporates both new techniques and pivotal
discoveries in a succinct, easy-to-digest way, using updated
figures and diagrams to help explain complex processes. Updated
content on the manipulation of DNA and genes reflects the rapid
introduction of new methods in contemporary research, and
incorporates up-to-date discussions of recent developments such as
gene editing. Chapter summaries are logically laid out, forming
bulleted lists which provide students with a consolidation of
difficult concepts and progressively guide them through the
specifics whilst keeping the big picture in mind. Additional 'find
out more' sections provide helpful problem-solving support and the
further reading is divided into types to cater for broader learning
needs. With an integrated approach covering both biochemistry and
molecular biology, complemented by frequent diagrams and clear
explanations, and all presented in a wider cellular context, this
text is the perfect introduction for any student new to the
subject. Online Resources: The online resources to accompany this
text include: For registered adopters of the book: * Figures from
the book available to download For students: * Further reading
organised by chapter * An extensive bank of multiple-choice
questions to support self-directed learning * Links to 3D molecular
structures in Protein Data Bank
